Man, that Spider-Nam story would be soo freaking awesome! Imagine in as in introduction to the story going "As the war escalates, the U.S. purposed a plan where anyone who is an Avenger, Mutant, Mythical, or a skilled vigilante is drafted in anyway like it or not."

[@JackClockerinos]

I have a story I've been planning to write for a bit of a while about superheroes fighting the Vietcong, all of them coming from different nations and led by a South Vietnamese superhero who calls himself Captain Vietnam (After Captain America).

[@rylanarchuleta6047]

Those Spider-Man animations are always hilarious, and the animation keeps getting better and better. Love your videos. Keep up the good work

DarkHero Gamer this is my boomstick amazing movie

[@Largentina.]

That's been a thing for decades. Like the people above me stated, Ash Williams has been saying it since the Evil Dead trilogy.

[@cbake76]

Great stuff as always! Really loved the CG bit-jealous of your capabilities there! Like I told you on Twitter, I feel Volition was just aping Max Payne, but it still worked really well. And of course, Max’s story is basically Frank’s, but he’s a cop. Oh, and I think I liked the villain reveal at the end more than you-thought it was clever. That character has never really been all that special, to be honest, so I don’t mind a change in the origin story. Though it also doesn’t make sense that the Russian is in it if this is even pretending to be movie continuity.

[@adjacentfilms2244]

Superhero Video Games with cbake76 Hey I know you!

[@mrsaintsgodzilla21]

A fun little fact about Saints Row 3 is that Volition put in one of the Punisher newspapers as an Easter Egg. Sadly it had to be removed in a patch since the studio no longer had the rights to the character. P.S. it’s always great to see another Godzilla KZbinr ;)

[@extradaf9757]

"15/10 basically call of duty" *thinks about punisher no mercy* WHY!

[@jray3585]

And scrubz animate does another good comedy skit. Seriously the animation movements are so smooth and fluent! The review itself was also good my favorite part was the live action moment of you cosplaying as punisher

[@_TheDayman]

I always thought the Stark Tower mission was fun (they even used the same Iron Man voice actor from the first Ultimate Alliance game

[@antdujar]

I wished we had a sequel to the game, with Thomas Jane voicing again, because his voice work for the game was just perfect.

[@stepkickking9868]

YES! I’ve been looking forward to this review. I always really appreciate the amount of work and editing you out into your reviews and videos. The wait is always worth it. 👍🏻

[@Spiderfanatic3]

Remember the time Castle was killing angels. Also he's not the punisher he's the Finisher.

[@Spiderfanatic3]

The fun thing about the newspaper articles is that they are developer notes that show many other mechanics they wanted to try and implement .

[@NarwhalPM]

Not gonna lie the animation was perfect

[@jamesp8677]

I remember one of the flash backs where the criminal goes "I got a family" And Frank replies "so did i"

[@retrojunkie2424]

You know it's gonna be a good day when Godzilla Mendoza uploads a video.

[@gruwidge]

Oh god I think this might be one of my favourite videos of yours now, also that punisher costume is 👌

[@TheOrthodoxClown]

I believe this video game and the 2004 movie got the Punisher right in my opinion. Those are my favorite version of The Punisher and they are both play by the same actor.

[@KTheStruggler]

I played this game so much. My PS2 controller was broken and the sticks would just occasionally bug the fuck out. I was interrogating a guy with the drill press interaction in that one chop shop mission and in the middle of telling what I interogated him for my stick bugged out and I violently jammed the drill into his face. I was laughing so hard when that happened, it's one of those videogame memories that stick with you forever.

[@r3n3gad33]

I wonder if that Spider-Nam thing was an idea that Stan Lee and Steve Ditko had the 60s to make a propaganda comic where Spider-Man goes to Vietnam?

[@PauseUn-Pause]

Thomas jane will always be punisher in my eyes. Anytime i read the comics i hear his voice

[@ZackIn3D]

Great vid man, u will always be my favorite of all time

[@dawe964]

for bringing this piece of master piece back, I salute you sir! I loved this game af

[@robertcorr6971]

2 questions: Do you like Ghost Rider and Did you ever play the video game, I think it is prime material for your channel

[@spectacularpoopfly8464]

Man, I would love to see a review of that

[@J0r-El]

I played it during my high school days, and was surprised by how good this game was. It's not until 2021, I discovered that Garth Ennis was also behind the project, so I had an "Ahaaaah..." moment. No wonder why it kicked so much ass.

[@nickbode5211]

Great review, both informative and funny! I bought and read all the Punisher: Armory comics based on your recommendation!

[@bludtinge]

Hearing Moderat was a big surprise for me. Seen them live last summer, amazing.

[@maxmfpayne]

"I'll just call him Chuck" was genuinely pretty great

[@justinespirit2]

I feel like Xavier’s Spider-Man personality better fits Deadpool than Spider-Man...

[@masterwesty]

This is one of my fav PS2 games. Completed it a dozen times. I realised on the mission in Stark Tower when you fight the helicopter it just floats there waiting to be finished but endless amount of enemies keep coming from the corridor so you can just pick them off one at a time and stack up loads of points. I think I done that for two hours lol.

[@MichaelChu]

I’m still super ready for the second part of the hulk retrospective if that’s still happening LOL

[@dunkanbulk14]

Michael Chu he said in the spiderman 3 livestream that its coming after this (punisher) review

[@Spidey7ishere]

Man this vid was unexpected I LOVE THE UNEXPECTED

[@pixelanarchy1711]

You got my support for Spider-Nam. I'd legit buy that, and probably read it more than once. I don't do that often.

[@gameragodzilla]

The armory comic is very much akin to the armory books released for The Executioner/Mack Bolan series (which Punisher was very much a copy of). Pretty cool.

[@Zaya333]

Really good vid Mendoza!

[@erv_.]

YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

[@schizojimbo]

I hope that later along the line you'll upload a punisher cosplay video because last time you did a live action recording for the spider-verse video it ended up being apart of the scarlet-spider/ Miles Morales cosplay video. this was a great video Xavier. good job

[@donovanisnotonfirev1438]

I'll be honest, every time i see the animations where you voice spideman, its always great 100% of the time

[@christhechilled]

I never thought the makers of Saints Row made the most violent marvel game right next to Wolverine.

[@kannakamui2334]

I would love for socially inept Spiderman to become a series lmao. It's a really fun way to learn about obscure aspects of marvel lore. Also I think you'd make a great voice actor for Spiderman in an official series.

[@mrmadmight266]

God dang it! i love meet some guilty pleasures of mine like The Punisher! this is definitely the review i needed in order to know other Punisher games besides the great Punisher arcade game by Capcom. great review man and screw you KZbin for not only demonitizing but also for suspending my original account for no clear reason.

[@spencerprice7085]

“You think this is a game?!” -“You lose” *pulls trigger

[@thelittlepasty8360]

Never disappointed with what I see that’s uploaded

[@spiderdalorian5666]

Hey Xavier what are your thoughts on the venom/deadpool,meet cable trailer ???

[@shnoozezzz9752]

You said FRIDAY! But I don’t mind waiting a few hours for amazing free content.

[@ComicWriter-ml3qt]

You know the one thing that surprised me about enniss’ run on punisher was the up is down and Black is white scene where punisher sleeps with O’Brien. I mean, it was a neat little callback to the second story arc from the MAX run where she constantly drools over him but I always thought the punisher was really so faithful to his dead wife that sleeping with anyone else was never something he cared to do. I don’t hate it because it leads to a pretty brutal fight scene involving the sister of a mobster frank fought.

[@cancerenhancer0144]

Xavier should be the Bruce Campbell of a Spider-Man game or just do your own for spiderman 2 or 3

[@SM-1962]

When Xavier predicted the Boys before it became a show.

[@timmizelle4688]

Xavier i remember when your channel had 100 subs. Now look at you, 38k keep it up bro!

[@criticalthought1112]

There was supposed to be a sequel to this game that would have Deadpool as a boss.

[@irequirecalcium1959]

I keep coming back to this thinking I haven’t watched it

[@damanibrown3021]

I respect your encyclopedic knowledge of all and anything comics.

[@bigmidget117]

Love the Flying Lotus in the back ground, also the voice actor who plays Punisher sounds like a young Wolverine or Tank Dempsey

[@ComicWriter-ml3qt]

0:30 quote from the MAX story in the beginning. Edit: Frankenstein bit not included

[@SHINOBIKAZ]

I come back to a handful of Xavier’s older stuff every once in awhile, even though I’ve seen it before this video and the Ultimate Alliance one are such good classics imo

[@spider-jonah-man7148]

Same

[@highspeedheadbanger]

your an awesome person for that Spider-nam shoutout you know that?

[@jamesanderson4190]

First Time ever watching a video from this guy and I already LOVE IT!!! I love the parts were he says "what was I talking about... oh ya"

[@orochimarussidepiece6138]

You know I wish we had more one-off great superhero games like this it's just like that Daredevil game that was in development it could have been just like this a Hidden Gem that's perfect but not a lot of people know about it sadly though these games are far and few between

[@chumcalmdown]

I NEED MORE REVIEWS AND MEMES, why can I subscribe twice

[@brandonvargas5574]

still got this game for my Xbox X and when I play it I get flashbacks and memories as a lil kid

[@redheadboyyy123]

I love it was voiced by Thomas Jane. Especially since the movie’s flaws weren’t his fault proof is Dirty Laundry

[@navycalvin9337]

Fun For The Whole Family... oh the irony

[@user-in1gv1uh2v]

I like how you use the Dark Knight Rises Batman belt for your Punisher cosplay Xavier.

[@99twig63]

Great video I have read a couple of old punisher issues but I want to get into his comics officially any place or run I should start with?

[@jordan999fire]

This game got me into comic books. I first played this game at my stepbrothers house. I went out and bought the 2004 movie and loved it. Then a few years down the line I saw a Punisher comic and read it. Now he's my favorite comic book character of all time and I've read a majority of his standalone stuff and a lot of his appearances as well.

[@wolfwyvern5334]

What a coincidence. I just got the emulator for this.

[@TTWackyDog]

Just replayed this for the 500th time and am now rewatching this for the 500th time. Nostalgia aside, this game holds up way better than it should (almost 20 years later!) and I would pay full price for a Resident Evil-level remake.

[@yu-gi-ohcasual6294]

That skit with Spidey and Castle was AMAZING.

[@ROCK_UNIVERSE97]

"bullseye huh?", love that scene in the movie! (7:06)

[@fancygoblin9362]

Fun for the whole... oh wait... Great review Xavier!

[@artistcally-bankrupt7176]

Volition recently spoke about this game and even showed off footage for Punisher 2 that they were working on. It was gonna be open world, but ultimately was cancelled, alot of it was retooled and used in the saints row series which is why theres some similiar animations.

[@M_Man116]

Best game from my childhood
